    I have a new Prius 2013 lift back and would like to trade my tail lights
    for a set of 2011's, just like the look. Must be near perfect and in working order.
    I live in Maryland and meet and swap would be preferable.

    I'd love to trade, but I'm near Toronto. Have a 2011 Liftback and they are in excellent condition

    I'll be passing through MD in October. My 2010 stocks are off the car, but I could bring em with, if you'd have the 2013's available for a quick swap.

    The work itself is very straight forward and both of us liked the result.
    I'd say it took about an hour - an hour and a half or so to do, we talked a lot. Just need to take your time and
    the rest is very easy. Here is a real good video as to how to do it:

    Round trip My wife and I did 1447KM. Worked out to be 50MPG. Which I'm happy with considering we were motoring along. WELL worth the trip to trade the Tail Lights. We both were happy, as the 2013 lights looked better on my 2011 and the 2011 lights looked better on his 2013. Every time we made a stop, I had a look at them. They look Awesome.

    Supertone is a great guy to deal with. He was a pleasure to meet, and talk with. Made the trip a very worthwhile experience. All in all, it was 23 hours round trip.

    Here's a shot I took with my iPhone in the driveway tonight, after I gave the car a bath and washed off all the bugs....

    20130819_074208.jpg So, got up this morning and took these, really like the 10-11 rear lights!
    I'll get the source for the LED's can be used where ever you have 194/168/912 sizebulbs
    They are bright because there are multiple LED's on each (see picture)
    BTW - Welcome aboard! Coffee Crisps are fantastic!

    I so would love those PIP tails. In fact after seeing them work in person I have to have them someday.

    I'd be happy with either - anyone else out there want to trade for the 10-11 style?
